the president could open up more federal lands and offshore areas for energy exploration. his administration could take a more balanced approach to new regulations. economic growth can help solve our fiscal problems if the economy had grown at the percentage as it has done in the past. the treasury could have collected an additional 650 billion dollars in fiscal year 2012. the deficit that would have fallen. still bad, but remarkably better than where we find ourselves today. republicans stand ready to work with president obama for a balanced and bipartisan solution. so far, no evidence of that. let's create a long-term solution that does not burden individuals and gives businesses optimism to go forward and invest in the american economy. then the economy can grow for all citizens. i look forward to the testimony of our witnesses. >> thank you. i will introduce our two witnesses. dr. zandi is the chief economist at moody's analytics. he looks at macro racquets and public policy. he is the influential source of policymakers and businesses and journalists. recently he publi

we're seeing nuclear energy, for example, nuclear power plants will come to the region relatively soon if the arab spring does not interfere with those plans. the projections that are on the books come to be realized. if you go country by country and realize what the motivations might be, there are many factors and might lead in a different direction. it is difficult to make nuclear weapons. we would certainly push back on any of these states that are seeking to acquire nuclear arms. many of the states are very dependent on us. even saudi arabia is dependent on us to protect them right now , and provide advanced military equipment. that relationship would be completely endangered if they were seen to be moving down the wrong track. the same is true for egypt. maybe algeria, any other state we would like to identify. i do not need the cascade and to get extremely nervous about iran. there is much to worry about there. just an iran per se, and the threat they will present to us and others. focusing on iran because of what it can do itself. >> let me be a little more pessimistic. prolifer
